11 new opportunity occupations for immigrants in Canada

Canada Permanent resident card is the dream of many would-be immigrants from all over the world. One of the ways to qualify is to apply as a skilled worker in one of the qualifying occupations. Last month the Federal government added 11 new professions to the list which is great news for dentists, dentist, pharmacists and architects among others. The reasons for this is that most regions in Canada are experiencing a shortage of professionals and skilled workers in these occupations, and some cities and regions have a particularly high need for workers with this experience that is why they have the best chance for success in finding full-time permanent employment in Canada.

Here is the list of the 11 new occupations:

•Architects•Biologists•Contractors and Supervisors in mechanic trades•Dentists•Dental Hygienists•Insurance agents•Pharmacists•Primary Production managers•Professionals in Business services to Managers•Psychologists•Social workers

In order to qualify in one of the 11 new occupations, skilled workers should have at least 1 year of paid experience within the last ten years. Canadian Immigration Minister Jason Kenney announced that Canadian government has amended its current immigration procedures to put even greater emphasis on reducing the Federal Skilled Worker application backlog.

For those skilled workers applying under the occupation list, the government will limit the number of applications considered for processing to 20,000 total per year. Within the 20,000 limit, a maximum of 1,000 applications per occupation will be considered. This limit, however, does not apply to applicants with a job offer.
